My family and I stayed overnight with breakfast included. We had to extend our stay at short notice, so we looked into the Grand Mercure, which we were interested in, and found that only Japanese-style rooms were available. Our room was a ”traditional” style. (We actually wanted an animal-themed room for kids, but since it was summer vacation, it was fully booked when we looked a while ago.) The newly renovated area was very clean and impressive. There was a pool, outdoor play equipment, and an indoor playground, so we could play there before going to our room, so we arrived early and had plenty of fun. (The pool shower and changing rooms were very small and a bit old-fashioned, which was a shame.) We also used the lounge both in the evening and at night, and my daughter loved it. The bath had a lovely atmosphere, and the relaxing space after the bath, as well as the vinegar drink and amazake (sweet rice drink) were delicious. The breakfast buffet the next morning is reserved at check-in, so it's best to book early to choose the time. (One-hour limit.) The restaurant on the 13th floor has a great view, so the views were spectacular. Most of the guests were families with young children (elementary school age and younger), and there were plenty of kid's chairs and beds available. Reservations are required, so while the tables were full, it wasn't too crowded and we had trouble getting food. (We made our reservation at 9:00 AM.) The menu was satisfying for both adults and children. There are plenty of hotels available, so I recommend arriving with plenty of time to check in. It's located right next to Rindoko Family Farm, so it's also recommended for those staying there.

The facilities and hospitality of the hotel mentioned above are close to full marks. On the other hand, unfortunately the cleaning of the hot spring bath is not so good, and there is nothing that can be done about the quality of the hot spring water. And the quality of the dinner. The number of dishes is more than enough, but I would like them to take the taste more seriously. I would like food that tastes good, not just the price.

This was my first time staying at Asaya Hotel, and I booked a valley-side room in the Shuho-kan wing. While the hotel itself felt a bit dated and the room had a slight musty smell, it was impeccably clean, which made for a comfortable stay. There was just one major drawback. The 'valley-side' of the Shuho-kan wing, unbeknownst to me, faces the direction where several well-known abandoned hotels in Kinugawa Onsen are located. When I looked out from the balcony, I was met with the sight of a truly eerie abandoned hotel. To be frank, the view was far from pleasant and quite unsettling. It was genuinely frightening. Even from the onsen windows, those abandoned hotels were clearly visible, making the nights feel particularly eerie and scary. Aside from that, everything else was great; the buffet was thoroughly satisfying, and the service was excellent.

The hotel itself is lovely, and the service was incredibly attentive. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious. We booked a large room which was exceptionally spacious, and my family absolutely loved it. Its proximity to Toshogu Shrine was a huge plus – just a 5-minute walk to the entrance, making it super convenient for sightseeing. Overall, a highly recommended hotel.

The hotel is great! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with many facilities like karaoke, a game center, and more. I visited with my family, a total of 14 people, and they were able to arrange a private room for us for both dinner and breakfast. Both meals were buffet-style and absolutely delicious. The onsen experience was wonderful, and the view from the onsen was fantastic, with a beautiful view of the Kinugawa River. However, there was one issue: when we checked in, the reception took our passports for photocopying. Unfortunately, they missed returning one of the passports to us. It wasn’t until after we checked out and reached our next stop that we realized one passport was missing. We had to go back to the hotel to take it. Despite this, the overall experience was great, and I would still recommend the hotel.

Not only did we receive excellent service during our stay, but their flexibility in accommodating our individual requests truly set them apart from other hotels – it was a world of difference. Highly recommend.

The hotel is located on top of the hill, is not very convenient to get there. The shuttle bus from Nikko station is fully booked even we tried to book 1 day in advance as recommended on their website which only written in Japanese. There is no shuttle provided to pick up from the hotel bus stop. With luggage it’s definitely more than 7min up hill walk. The room we book comes with an open air bath, but was informed that the open air bath in room cannot be use during winter due to frozen pipe condition. The food is mediocre, nothing special.

After two days, eating out in the area was a dreadful problem. It was both unpalatable and hard to find (they closed early). The hotel's food was also quite unpalatable, but at least they offered à la carte options, so I wasn't critical. The supermarket was at least a half-hour drive away, and the road was winding...too difficult. The hotel itself was quite basic, with two different types of hot springs. It was a pretty pristine environment...monkeys pooped on my balcony every day...never happened to me when I stayed in Kamikochi or Aomori.

The service was impeccable, with the young waiters always smiling. During my seven-day trip to Japan, this was the only place where I experienced the kind of Japanese service I've been seeing online. The room was spacious, and the food and hot springs were excellent. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a hot spring inn in a secluded area like Kawaji Yumoto. The only downside was that the furniture was a bit dated. The filter on the kettle's outlet was rusty and yellowed. I hope it's replaced soon, as it's not a very expensive item.
